A small mass m is attached to a massless string whose other end is fixed at P as shown in the figure. The mass is undergoing circular motion in the xy-plane with centre at O and constant angular speed . If the angular momentum of the system, calculated about O and P are denoted by and , respectively, then 

- Aand do not vary with time.
